The bill is just backloaded in case we get another one.
00:02
Oh hey,
00:07
sounds good, appreciate it.
00:13
We'll let you know when we're out of here.
00:19
We're clear on the page we'll be here in a little bit.
00:26
Okay, so that's definitely you. So you're talking,
00:29
you're wondering if you want to continue that line forward into the island there?
00:35
Yeah, into that next island off my blade. Does the fire extend into that or is it just kind of contained to this island that's right next to me?
00:45
Alright, Sonny, it looks like it's backing into that island a little bit. Not an awful long ways.
00:54
Okay, cool.
00:55
Yeah,
00:56
it's so hard to see through the smoke, but I think if we can get it cut off right here, it'd be a good thing.
01:04
Yeah, it doesn't look awfully intense, but see if it kind of die down in the hardwood leaf litter there.
01:11
It definitely was. When it backed its way out into this marsh grass at first, it really flared up, but it's let down some now.

Clear. Okay.
01:50
Yeah, I would say since I've came back the second time, it's definitely died down up until now. Yeah, it's starting to start to die down.
01:59
All right.
02:03
Copy things.
02:09
Right flank there, where it's burning in that marsh grass, but the intensity seems to be dying down once it kind of gets into the shadows.
02:20
So hopefully it dies right down to happen.
02:26
What's that?
02:29
So that's good.
02:35
I don't tell the plane here.
